Genshin Impact: Without the Eye of God, the Original Man Witnesses the Original

The other members of the Buffati Mansion came back one after another while everyone was chatting.

"Hello, Mr. Jiang Yi!" The people who came back were young and mature adults, as well as some clean and elegant children.

After being introduced by Linnie, everyone bowed and greeted Jiang Yi respectfully and politely.

"It turns out that Linny has so many family members!" Paimon counted the number of people, and it was a very powerful family. Look at Linny, Linnet, and Femini, the brother and sister, the younger brother and sister, all three of them have the Eye of God.

Ying looked for a while and suddenly realized that "Buffati Mansion" might be an orphanage.

That's why there are so many children.

The hair color and pupils are different, as if they come from different places.

So, it’s so sinful. Is Jiang Yi using the children in the orphanage as his wallet and spending the orphanage’s money?

The greatest evil person in the world.

Usually, Jiang Yi donates money to orphanages! Why this time... Um! Buffati Mansion is Jiang Yi's partner. Jiang Yi won't want to hire child laborers to work for him!

Snapped!

Jiang Yi flicked his finger at Ying's little face, which was filled with guilt and she felt that she was in cahoots with the evildoers.

"There's a mosquito..." He looked at Ying with concern, "I hope it didn't bite you on the forehead!"

When facing Ying, there is no need to read her mind. Just look at the corners of her mouth and you will know what she is thinking.

Forehead...bag...wallet! Ying subconsciously translated it as a cold joke.

"You are the one who is bitten by the mosquito. Beautiful girls don't attract mosquitoes." Ying said contemptuously.

Over there, Linny and Femini chatted about some personal matters, and then Linny got the sea dew flower from Femini.

Picking sea lilies, working underwater, was much more efficient than when he and Linnet were at the seaside.

"The Beaumont workshop is a little far to the north of Fontaine... Sorry, Femini is a little introverted and is afraid of the talkative and enthusiastic owner of that shop. It seems that I have to deliver these materials." Linny scratched his head. It can't be too late, otherwise the workshop will be closed.

Feeling apologetic and thinking that she had eaten up the orphanage fees, Ying offered, "Let me help you deliver it! It happens that every time we go to a city, we will know where the blacksmith shop, adventurer's guild, alchemy shop... are. The workshop you mentioned can also be considered a blacksmith shop."

Of course, there is another reason. She saw that there are teleportation anchor points in Fontaine, so it is necessary to find those corresponding anchor points, enter her own information, and obtain the permission to teleport. Next time she visits, she won’t have to keep running.

"Ah!" Linney was shocked. "How can we ask guests to run errands for us..."

"Hehe, we are kind-hearted!" Although he didn't know why Ying was so proactive, Paimeng would not lose face.

"Ying wants to learn about the blacksmith shop, so why don't you go with your brother and bring the materials!" Linnet suggested, "Father has told us the story of Mr. Jiang Yi, and everyone is very curious about him, so... can Mr. Jiang Yi and Yandora stay here for a while?"

She looked at Jiang Yi.

"Okay, I was planning to wait here." Jiang Yi didn't want to run errands. Wouldn't it be nice to stay here and brush the jade slips?

Yandora nodded.

Wherever Jiang Yi is, there she is.

"Miss Charlotte..." Linnet looked at Charlotte who was in a trance.

"Ah!" Charlotte came back to her senses, "Since you all have plans, I will go back to the Steambird Newspaper Office first. I also know the hotel you mentioned. If you want to see me again, you can contact me through the jade slip or come to the hotel to find you."

Jiang Yi and Ying nodded.

"Hehe, bye then... Come to Steambird Newspaper Office to visit me when you have the chance!" Charlotte waved.

Soon he left behind a back view and disappeared around the corner.

"Buffati Mansion... Fatui... Hearth House..." She touched her chin and muttered to herself after turning the corner. "When Mr. Jiang Yi came to Fontaine, the first people he met were Fatui, not Lady Water Goddess Funina... Ugh! Forget it, don't think about the affairs of a big shot like Jiang Yi."

She took a step and ran. It had been a long time since she returned to the Steam Bird Newspaper. With the jade slip in her hand, she was almost becoming an "overseas correspondent". She had to go back quickly to improve her prestige and strive for the year-end bonus.

Then write relevant reports about "Man-God".

Ying, Paimon, and Linny go to Beaumont Workshop.

"Mr. Jiang Yi, Miss Yandora, would you like tea or coffee..." Linnet invited Jiang Yi and Yandora into the house.

The children around looked at them curiously.

Generally speaking, places with many children will appear very noisy, especially when there are more than three naughty children, the destructive power increases exponentially.

And these children in the Buffati Mansion are actually reading and drawing.

Even though he had the jade slip in his hand, he didn't play games or watch videos.

Shows good self-control and learning spirit.

"Have a cup of tea!" Jiang Yi said.

"Thank you, I don't need it." Yandora shook her head.

"Okay, I understand your request." Linnet bowed and left.

Linnett demonstrated her professionalism while preparing hot water, cleaning the tea set, and making tea.

Making tea is one of her few hobbies.

Whenever distinguished guests came to visit, it was usually Linnie who came out to talk to them and she would entertain them with tea; when there was a tea party at home, it was usually she who was responsible for making tea and the other family members were responsible for talking.

While Linnette was making tea, Jiang Yi looked at the children around him.

Yes! The books I read are "The Phantom Thief and the Great Detective: The Mystery of the Rainbow Brooch", "The Snow-winged Goose Fairy Tales", "The Two Gunslingers", "Fontaine Bestiary", "The Decline and Fall of Lemuria"...

They're all quite interesting books.

The children seemed embarrassed to chat with him, and many of them were eager to try, but no one stepped forward.

"Hello, do you want to play 'Marelle' with us?" A little girl with shoulder-length hair, purple eyes and wearing a blue plaid dress invited Yandora.

"I'm not a child..." Yandora raised her head.

"Marelle" is a game that children in Fontaine love to play. They draw several orderly grids on the ground with a pen, throw sandbags into the grids, and then take turns jumping in and out according to certain rules. It is just like "hopscotch" in Xumi.

It is not known when this game began to spread, nor who created the rules.

When the children at the Boufadi Mansion were young, there were always older children who took them to play "Marelle".

"..." The little girl felt that all the eyes of other family members were cast on her.

"But I can play with you." Yandora remembered the teachings of the little auspicious grass king. Playing games can quickly shorten the distance between people, and the same is true for gods.

"Thank you. My name is 'Eluard.'" Eluard took Yandora to the mansion, where they played games on a grid-lined field that had already been drawn.

Finally, someone took the lead.

The other children came up to Jiang Yi and asked, "Mr. Jiang Yi, are you wearing the clothes of the famous detective Chesterton in "The Phantom Thief and the Detective: The Mystery of the Rainbow Brooch"? Do you like this book and the famous detective in it?"

"No! I like Phantom Thief!" Jiang Yi denied without hesitation.

"Huh?" the children were surprised.

"Then why aren't you wearing the clothes of Thomas Loben, the Phantom Thief?"

"Because this dress was chosen for me by someone else." Jiang Yi spread his hands, "Besides, I think it's reasonable for a thief to use the appearance of a famous detective to conceal his true identity, isn't it?"

"The Phantom Thief and the Detective: The Mystery of the Rainbow Brooch" is a popular entertainment reading in Fontaine. It tells the story of the first face-to-face confrontation between the phantom thief Thomas Loben, known as the "Phantom Gentleman", and the famous detective Chesterton.

The Phantom Thief is good at disguising himself in a way that is difficult to distinguish between the real and the fake. Before stealing an item, he will send out a "warning letter" and then appear in a handsome manner. He will steal the item surrounded by a group of detective guards and leave in style.

"Oh! No wonder! Miss Luperet, a reporter for the Steam Bird Newspaper in the book, admires the thief Loben very much." The children nodded, "So you also have a reporter for the Steam Bird Newspaper, Miss Charlotte, by your side..."

"Huh? Is there such a surprising coincidence?" Jiang Yi was stunned for a moment, it seemed so!

"So what is Mr. Thief going to steal?" asked a young and mature woman. She was wearing red clothes, had brown hair and blue eyes, and there seemed to be some different expectation in her eyes.

"Is this question?" Jiang Yi looked at several pairs of eyes filled with expectation.

"As a Phantom Thief, I should indeed publish a 'preview letter'. However, I, as a Phantom Thief, do not steal gems, gold, or silver. I only steal people's misfortunes..." He smiled and said, "I will steal... the disaster of death."

“…” The children’s eyes are shining, so handsome!

Not stealing gems, not stealing gold, not stealing silver, not even stealing people’s good fortune, but rather bad fortune that is of no use to anyone.

It is indeed a Phantom Thief.

However, we originally thought that you were here to "steal Fontaine's greatest treasure", "Lady Funinna" or "the girl's heart".

But this stealing of bad luck is also in line with your identity.

"By the way, Miss Ying is the real detective. If there is a case, you should ask her to reason with you! The elusive thief will slip away early." Jiang Yi looked at the woman.

"The tea is ready." Linnet brought over the tea. After making it for Jiang Yi, she poured a cup for the people gathered here.

Then, sit aside.

Just like usual, while others were talking or chatting, she held the cup with both hands, blew on it silently, and took small sips.

Occasionally, it is appropriate to follow up with a sentence like "So that's how it is", "So that's how it is", "And then what" ... This saves energy and effort and can smoothly advance the conversation.

She looked at the mist rising from the teacup and smelled the elegant fragrance, and all the fatigue of the whole day seemed to disappear.

Today, I talked a lot.

Energy consumption exceeded the limit.

"I see this young gentleman is reading Fontaine's Bestiary...what does it tell?" Jiang Yi smiled and looked at a child.

It contains stories about a girl and the sun, a crow and a fox, a donkey... Most of the stories in the book are not written by the author himself, but come from ancient poems that are now lost.

"The stories in the first three volumes tell three fables." The child seemed like a little adult and was not nervous at all when facing Jiang Yi's questions.

"In other words, people should follow the arrangements of fate instead of making excuses. No matter how sincere or clever you are, you can't escape the responsibilities you should bear.

——Those who try to explore the secrets that they should not know will eventually lose everything they already have.

——Trying to imitate others to deliberately hide one’s true nature will not only be futile, but will also bring harm to oneself.”

Jiang Yi nodded: "Yes! A very standard answer."

"So Mr. Kaito, who steals bad luck, is the one who changes destiny?" The question was asked by the same woman.

Suddenly, the looks of several children became subtle.

A man in red with brown hair and brown eyes next to him quietly signaled to the woman.

Jiang Yi did not answer directly: "It is natural for people to want to deny their original fate and be dissatisfied with their fate, but is it really only possible to pray to the Phantom Thief to change their fate?"

"Just as everything has a price, changing your destiny will also come at a price."
